“Brothers, this is a matter of life and death. Be careful!”

Xiang Tianjie hurriedly tried to dissuade them. He really did not want to cause any more waves. He only wanted to free the prisoner safely.

Everyone came back to their senses, immediately trying to persuade Zhou Jing and the other two to reconsider once again.

Although most of the people present were indignant for Guo Haishen, it was fine if they just planned to break into the prison to save him. However, they really did not wish to take the risk to barge into the residence of a rich and powerful family to take revenge for Guo Haishen yet. They really felt that they were too weak alone and were not suitable to provoke the local nobles.

Not to mention, from Zhou Jing’s words, he did not just want to break into one family, but try his best to kill all of them… It was impossible with just the ten of them!

Zhou Jing waved his hand to stop everyone. He said firmly, “Brothers, I’ve made up my mind. Leave the chaos to the three of us. You just have to save them.”

Seeing that he was insistent, everyone could only give up helplessly.

The dozen or so people present were actually divided into four groups. Zhou Jing and Fang Zhen were together, Gao Yun acted alone, and the other two groups were the Heavenly King Stronghold and Red Cloud Mountain. They each had their own leaders.

Xiang Tianjie and Li Chun could command their people as the leader, but it was not easy to order an “outsider” like Zhou Jing, so it was not convenient to stop Zhou Jing. They were not qualified to command him.

Since Zhou Jing’s actions were also to save people and he was willing to take the risk, the others had no choice but to let him be.

Although many leaders felt that Zhou Jing’s decision was too risky, they were secretly impressed.

Others did not dare to think or do anything, but this Brother Chen was not afraid of danger and did not hesitate. His personality was as violent as fire… He was truly a hero for daring to walk towards the tiger’s mountain!

Moreover, many of the leaders of the Heavenly King Stronghold also felt that Zhou Jing’s words had hit the nail on the head.

No one was born to be a part of the Green Forest. Everyone had an indescribable past. Later on, they understood that in this world, a good person was akin to being lamb or a cow or horse, only to be exploited. That was why they were willing to become outlaws.

Some of the hot-tempered leaders of the Heavenly King Stronghold were filled with righteous anger after hearing Zhou Jing’s words. They even wanted to ignore everything and go with Zhou Jing to cause a ruckus… Unfortunately, with Xiang Tianjie as the leader, they could not disobey the Fourth Head and could only endure it.

However, everyone had an inexplicable feeling. They realized that although Zhou Jing was also from the Green Forest, there seemed to be something different about him compared to them, but they could not put their finger on it.

… If they had to describe it, perhaps he was more “pure” on that path compared to them?

Li Chun had no choice but to remind him, “Then Brother Chen, you have to be careful. Once things don’t work out, quickly retreat.”

At this moment, Lu Xinniang said, “Even if Brother Chen and the two brothers are in danger, someone has to provide support. Leave this matter to me.”

“Alright.” Li Chun nodded and did not stop her.

On the other hand, Lu Yunzhao wanted to say something but hesitated. After hesitating for a while, he said, “Let me help with the support for you three brothers. Xinniang, you can go and support the leaders of the Heavenly King Stronghold.”

He felt that it was too dangerous to support Zhou Jing and did not want his sister to go, so he planned to help out instead.

Lu Xinniang raised her eyebrows, unappreciative of his concern at all.

“The three of them are doing a righteous deed, hence I’m impressed. They’ve already taken the greatest risk, what’s my little bit of danger compared to theirs? If you have the heart, come and support them with me. If you don’t, don’t say such laughable words. Do I need you to replace me? Do you think I’m a spoiled woman who can’t even take some risks? Or do you not trust me?”

“You really don’t know what’s good for you…” Lu Yunzhao couldn’t help but feel depressed.

As soon as he said this, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly. They looked at him silently and did not speak.

Li Chun acutely sensed that this was inappropriate and quickly stopped Lu Yunzhao.

“Brother Lu! I’ve always known that you love your sister, but this matter is important. Since Xinniang has already made up her mind, don’t stop her.”

Lu Yunzhao also came to a realization and stopped talking.

Xiang Tianjie had no choice but to cough loudly and pull everyone’s attention back.

“Then that’s the plan. The eight of us from the Heavenly King Stronghold will go and break into the prison other than Shi Qing and Zheng Song. Li Chun, Lu Yunzhao, and Shi Qing will bring Zheng Song and the others can support and receive us. As for the chaos, we’ll leave it to Chen Feng, Gao Yun, and Fang Zhen. Lu Xinniang will go and support them… Does everyone think this is a good plan?”

Everyone agreed and had no objections.

This way, the division of labor was clear. The Heavenly King Stronghold was mainly responsible for breaking into the prison, leaving two people to prepare a retreat route, while the three leaders of the Red Cloud Mountain were only responsible for providing support. The difficult task of causing trouble was handed over to Zhou Jing and the other two unaffiliated people who did not have a stronghold to their name.

After confirming their respective responsibilities, everyone began to take action. They went to make more preparations before the date of the prison break arrived.

South of An Lin Prefecture, the He Family.

The He family also had an ancestor who was an official. They had been operating within An Lin Prefecture for many years, and their family was prosperous and had deep financial resources. Together with the Lu, Chen, and Huang families, they were also known as the four richest families in the prefecture. They were deeply rooted in the local area and were akin to the local tyrants here.

As for the southern part of the city, the scenery was the best. Most of them were tall mansions, which were considered the “rich district”. The mansions of the four noble families were all built in the southern part of the city.

After bribing the warden, Butler He immediately left the prison and returned to the residence to report to Old Master He.

Old Master He was a hale and hearty old man. He was holding a string of pearls in his hand, exuding an aura reserved for the wealthy..

After hearing the butler’s report, Old Master He nodded, speaking without much thought,

“Since he dared ruin our business, this Guo guy’s death is not worth pitying. However, for a martial artist like him, the feeling of becoming a cripple is worse than death. In this case, he can be considered to have barely paid the price.”
